Hi Guys,

Just finished this one, it was originally built by BMX Products Mongoose. Its a Racers Super X 1978 Nickel

I had been hunting one of these frames for some time, found one in Australia (I am in Manchester UK). After staying in touch with owner who had found the frame in a dump (old store clearance), he finally agreed to sell the frame on. It had been sprayed bombed, originally red and when i received it, matt black over the red. I was intending to paint it factory red but after stripping it realised it was nickel. The nickel had been protected perfectly under the paint. Many many hours of stripping and polishing. The look i was going for was a clean rider. Whilst waiting for the frame to arrive from Aus, I started purchase all parts from the US. Everything had to come from US as none was available in the UK, the seat clamp was the only thing that the UK. Its such a simple bike from the 70's that the parts list is fairly short. Its a pretty rare frame in the UK and i am glad to have been able to get some of this mongoose history back into the Uk.

Parts List

78 Frame
78 Ashtabula Forks, stem, crank
Three Arrows Chain Ring
Schwinn Bars
Schwinn bottom brack and headset
Stamp mongoose seat post and seat clamp
Faun black check seat
Kenda tyres
New decal kit from BMX Products
Winner Choice Grips (these were mega hard to get)
Mongoose stamped heavy guage wire 20' wheels
Bendix 76 coaster brake
stamped mongoose (union) pedals

The serious work on this bike was the frame itself, the weeks of solid polishing and striping work on the frame. Import taxes from the US were mental, but in the end, a really worthwhile project.

Loving that Goose... super cool.
